The modern music scene is a tough one to grasp. There is a myriad of digital outlets today to suggest what you should be listening to. You no longer have to rely on your friends, your most trustworthy music advocates to suggest new bands. Blogs are an endless resource where you don't have to look hard to find a free song to sample each day. From the blogs, to commercials to ringtones we are constantly bombarded by fragmented bits of music. Somewhere along the way the line turned hazy between an appropriate way [...]
The members of Capgun Coup are not the most well-versed students of rock music. The story starts 3 years ago in suburban Omaha, NE, where Elsasser & Martin began playing music together. Mutual... **Summary** Go to website for downloads, videos & more.

So this is it, the first FensePost Podcast. A few weeks ago I sat down and compiled a mix of various songs; some new, some old, most finding some relation to garage rock or garage pop. Hence the title, From The Garage . The theme is loose, so some bands fit and some don't. There are sixteen songs total here, stemming from local Seattle and Portland acts on across the world. New Zealand, Sweden, Canada... you get the picture. Enough banter - listen to the FenseCast already. [...]
Tasty video for "When I'm Gone" from Omaha, Nebraska's Capgun Coup off their worthwhile album, Maudlin . On a side note, I think I'm gonna start using "tasty" more often, in addition to name dropping Amon Düül. http://www.myspace.com/capgunc oup http://www.team-love.com
Back in October, we told you to check out the Omaha, NE surf punks of Capgun Coup . Well, they've impressed us once again with the video for their song "When I'm Gone", so we had to feature them once again. Pardon the bad metaphor, but for this video, a picture really is worth a thousand words. Turns out that the entire Tyler Chikenelli-directed three-minute video was done with pictures, creating a jerky stop motion-esque feel to the entire deal. The video, consisting mostly of performance shots and a few seconds of [...]

Cautiously fashionable, Bibio 's sound range is variable... Hope you like this particular. To the more dirty and distinguished, we have ' Dead-Channel ' - home of various electronica artists around the country. Hosting the likes of The Caulfield Beats , Kubex and Micoland , this internet-label host a medium sized database of general electronica that can be downloaded on MP3 Format. Well worth a sniff.

Capgun Coup Maudlin Team Love , 2009 Capgun Coup: "Sitting on the Sidewalk" Capgun Coup: "Bad Bands" I vividly remember the fall day in 2005 when I purchased Tournament of Hearts , the third LP from the Constantines.

The fuzz-rock outfit hailing from The Great Plains, Capgun Coup , have been busy supporting their sophomore effort Maudlin . They first caught my ear with "Bad Bands" and evoke feelings similar to those felt during blistering basement parties or drunken nights in default dive bars. The fine folks at Team Love asked if I'd like to premiere their new video/song "Only the Times are Changing", to which I happily obliged. The video for the energetic tune is a colorful display of camera tricks mixed with pixelated backgrounds reminiscent of an [...]
As many of you are probably also taking part in, we here at ATH will be taking a bit of vacation time for the Thanksgiving holiday over the next couple of days.

Sitting On The Sidewalk [mp3] - Capgun Coup This second single up from Maudlin ( Team Love , 11/2/09) conjures old school country/rockabilly the likes of Carl Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis . I've been trying to catch up with Sam for an interview for a few days now. After a couple of missed calls, I decided he's probably off rolling around in sticky molasses and self-feathering somewhere ..... way more fun than talking on the phone. Alas, he was [...]
Recorded by the quintet live, all collected together in one room in the (in)famous Hotel Frank, what emerges from these sessions is a ramshackle, rambunctious, rollicking record comprised of various strains of lo-fi indie-folk.

Radio Free Chicago is no stranger to Capgun Coup , having posted their song "Bad Bands" earlier in the fall. Now that the Omaha native's sophomore effort has finally hit the shelves, the band's wasted no time in hitting the road and getting more tracks on to the internet for mass consumption. Following the raw, fun track "Bad Bands", Capgun Coup has brought us "Sitting on the Sidewalk", which together show quite a bit of promise for their latest release, Maudlin . Vaguely reminiscent of the messy, DIY rock [...]
![[mp3] Capgun Coup - "Sitting On The Sidewalk"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2130621_lg.jpg)
A few weeks ago I tipped you off to the blazing first single from Maudlin , the brand new sophomore record from Capgun Coup . "Bad Bands" showcased the charmingly fuzzed-out garage-punk side of the band, but fans of 2007's Brought To You By Nebraskfish know there's more than that to these guys. The newest single, "Sitting On The Sidewalk" offers a glimpse at the other side of the Omaha collective - the side that has a fetish for mid-60's Dylan when he was just starting to plug in and [...]
